Description
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a method for preparing an octane boosting additive for use in a fuel for a spark-ignition internal combustion engine. In particular, the present invention relates to a process for the preparation of octane boosting additives which are derivatives of benzo [1,4] oxazines and 1, 5-benzoxazepinones. The invention also relates to a method for preparing a fuel for a spark-ignition internal combustion engine comprising said octane boosting additive.
Background
Spark ignition internal combustion engines are widely used for domestic and industrial power. For example, spark ignition internal combustion engines are commonly used in the automotive industry for powering vehicles such as passenger cars.
Fuels for spark-ignition internal combustion engines, typically gasoline fuels, typically contain a number of additives to improve fuel properties.
One class of fuel additives is octane improving additives. These additives increase octane number for the fuel, which is desirable to combat problems associated with pre-ignition, such as knock. When the base fuel octane is too low, the addition of an octane improver to the fuel can be performed by a refinery or other supply (suppier), such as a fuel terminal or a bulk fuel mixer, so that the fuel meets the appropriate fuel specifications.
Organometallic compounds containing, for example, iron, lead or manganese are well known octane improvers, of which Tetraethyllead (TEL) has been widely used as a high-efficiency octane improver. However, TEL and other organometallic compounds (if present) are currently commonly used in fuels only in small amounts because they can be toxic, damaging to the engine and damaging to the environment.
Octane improvers that are not metal-based include oxygenates (e.g., ethers and alcohols) and aromatic amines. However, these additives also have various disadvantages. For example, N-methylaniline (NMA) (aromatic amine) must be used at relatively high treat rates (1.5 to 2% additive weight/base fuel weight) to have a significant effect on the octane number of the fuel. NMA may also be toxic. Oxygenates reduce the energy density in the fuel and can cause compatibility problems in fuel storage, fuel lines, seals and other engine components when it comes with NMA that must be added at high processing rates.
Recently, a new class of octane boosting additives has been discovered. These octane boosting additives are derivatives of benzo [1,4] oxazines and 1, 5-benzoxazepines and show great promise due to their non-metallic nature, their low oxygenate content and their efficacy at low treat rates (see WO 2017/137518).
The synthetic routes currently reported in the literature provide various descriptions of how benzoxazines can be prepared on a relatively small scale (from a few hundred mg to a scale of up to 100 kg). For example, US 2008/064871, which relates to compounds for the treatment or prevention of uric acid related diseases such as gout, discloses the preparation of benzoxazine-derived compounds.
However, due to the high cost of specialized raw materials (e.g. methylaminophenols) and reagents (e.g. lithium aluminium hydride and dibromoethane), which are required in stoichiometric amounts, such synthetic methods are not useful for preparing new types of octane boosting additives on an industrial scale (e.g. from 50 up to 20,000 metric tons/year).
Thus, there is a need for a process for the synthesis of a new class of octane boosting additives that can be implemented on a large scale and that alleviates at least some of the problems highlighted above (e.g., by avoiding the use of expensive aminophenol starting materials).
Summary of The Invention

Detailed description of the invention
The present invention provides a method for preparing a fuel additive.
In step (i) of the process, an alkylating agent is addedbAdding the starting materialsaTo form an intermediatec:
each R13Independently selected from hydrogen and alkyl, or two R13Radicals with-O-C to which they are attachedthe-O-groups together form a 1, 3-dioxolane or 1, 3-dioxane group. Each R13Preferably selected from hydrogen, methyl, ethyl, propyl and butyl, and more preferably methyl and ethyl. In a preferred embodiment, said R is13The groups are the same.
. Preferably, the alkylating agent b is an epoxide reagent, i.e. n = 0, since epoxides readily react with the starting material a to form intermediatesc。
R14selected from hydrogen and alkyl groups, and preferably hydrogen, methyl, ethyl, propyl and butyl, and more preferably hydrogen, methyl and ethyl.
in step (i), the leaving group L is lost from the alkylating agent b. Each L in alkylating agent b is independently selected from a leaving group or two L groups together form a group-O-c (O) -O-, i.e., a group effective to provide 2 leaving groups. It is to be understood that only two L groups are present in embodiment (2) and thus together may form the group-O-C (O) -O-.
Preferably, each L is independently selected from the group consisting of halides (e.g., Cl, Br, I), sulfonates (e.g.-OSO2A, wherein A is selected from tolyl, methyl, -CF3、-CH2Cl, phenyl and p-nitrophenyl), substituted aryloxy (e.g. phenyl-O-Ar, wherein Ar is selected from nitro substituted aryl such as p-nitrophenyl) and hydroxyl, more preferably from halides and sulfonates, and most preferably from Cl and Br. The hydroxyl group is generally used only as a possible leaving group L in embodiment (2).
Generally, relative to the starting materialsaThe alkylating agent may be used in an amount of 0.5 to 8 molar equivalents, preferably 0.75 to 6 molar equivalents and more preferably 0.85 to 5 molar equivalentsb. It is understood that the starting materialsaAnd an alkylating agentbThe preferred ratio of (b) may vary between different embodiments. For example, for embodiment (1), the alkylating agent may preferably be used in an amount of 0.85 to 0.95 molar equivalentsb. For embodiment (2), the alkylating agent may preferably be used in an amount of 2 to 5 molar equivalentsb。
Step (i) of the present invention is preferably carried out in the presence of a base. This applies in particular to embodiments (1), (2) (in particular in the case other than where two L groups together form the group-O-C (O) -O-or where two L groups are selected from-OH), (3), (5) and (6). Suitable bases may be selected from:
inorganic bases, for example alkali metal hydroxides such as sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide and carbonates such as sodium bicarbonate, sodium carbonate, potassium bicarbonate and potassium carbonate,
-ammonia, and
organic bases, for example nitrogen-containing organic bases, such as from trimethylamine, diisopropylethylamine, 1, 8-diazabicyclo [5.4.0] undec-7-ene, pyridine and 4-dimethylaminopyridine.
The base is preferably an inorganic base and more preferably selected from carbonates.
Relative to the starting materialsaPreferably in an amount of 0.8 to 5 molar equivalents, preferably 1 to 3 molar equivalents and more preferably 1.05 to 2.5 molar equivalentsThe base is described.
In some embodiments, step (i) may be effected in the presence of a catalyst, for example a catalyst selected from the group consisting of acids (e.g. p-toluenesulfonic acid or sodium bisulfite), zeolites (e.g. zeolite Y, sodium (faujasite)), metal catalysts (e.g. palladium catalysts, preferably used with a zinc oxide support), halogen exchange catalysts (e.g. alkali metal halides such as KBr, NaBr, KI and NaI), and phase transfer catalysts (e.g. quaternary ammonium salts such as tetraalkylammonium halides, preferably butyltriethylammonium chloride or methyltributylammonium chloride).
For example, in embodiment (2) wherein two L groups together form the group-O-c (O) -O-, or wherein at least one L group is selected from-OH, then a catalyst is preferably used and preferably selected from an acid (e.g. p-toluenesulfonic acid or sodium bisulfite), a zeolite (e.g. zeolite Y, sodium (faujasite)) or a metal catalyst (e.g. a palladium catalyst, preferably used with a zinc oxide support).
In embodiments wherein L is halogen, particularly where L is Cl, step (i) may also be effected in the presence of a catalyst, for example in the presence of at least one and preferably both of a halogen exchange catalyst (e.g., an alkali metal halide such as KBr, NaBr, KI and NaI) and a phase transfer catalyst (e.g., a quaternary ammonium salt such as a tetraalkylammonium halide, preferably butyltriethylammonium chloride or methyltributylammonium chloride).
Relative to the starting materialsaThe catalyst may be used in an amount of less than 1 molar equivalent, preferably less than 0.5 molar equivalent and more preferably less than 0.1 molar equivalent.
It is understood that a base and a catalyst may be used. An example of such a combination is an inorganic base (e.g., an alkali metal carbonate) and a halogen exchange catalyst (e.g., an alkali metal iodide).
Step (i) may be carried out in the presence of a solvent selected from aprotic solvents (e.g., tetrahydrofuran, acetonitrile, dimethoxyethane, dioxane, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, dimethylsulfoxide, ethylene carbonate, sulfolane, diphenyl ether, acetonitrile, 2-nitropropane, acetone, butan-2-one, butyl formate, ethyl acetate, isobutyronitrile, methyl acetate, methyl formate, nitromethane, tetrahydrofuran (oxolane) and propionitrile), chlorinated solvents (e.g., dichloromethane, dichloroethane, chloroform) and water. Aprotic solvents are well known in the art as solvents that cannot donate protons. Aprotic solvents do not contain hydrogen atoms bound to nitrogen or oxygen.
Preferably, step (i) is effected in the presence of an aprotic solvent.
Preferably, the solvent of each of embodiments (1) to (6) is selected from:
for embodiment (1) aprotic solvents (e.g., from acetonitrile, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, dimethylsulfoxide, and acetone);
for embodiment (2), except where two L groups together form the group-O-c (O) -O-or at least one L group is selected from-OH, and embodiments (3) and (6) aprotic solvents (e.g., from tetrahydrofuran, acetonitrile, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, dimethylsulfoxide, and acetone) and chlorinated solvents (e.g., from dichloromethane, dichloroethane, and chloroform);
for embodiment (2), in the case where two L groups together form the group-O-c (O) -O-or at least one L group is selected from-OH: aprotic solvents (e.g. from N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, dimethylformamide and acetonitrile), and, although less preferably, water (preferably at a pH of 8.5 to 9.5, for example because it is used with a base such as ammonia);
for embodiment (4) aprotic solvents (e.g., from tetrahydrofuran, dimethoxyethane, and dioxane); and

This is believed to enhance the intermediates obtainedcThe purity of (2).
In these embodiments, step (i) is preferably effected in the presence of a solvent. Step (i) may also be carried out in the absence of a solvent, although this is less preferred because of the intermediatecSpecial handling is required when not in a solvent.

These components are believed to maximize the activity of the catalyst.

Preferably, the reaction additive is an acid, such as an acid selected from inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid and organic acids such as p-toluenesulfonic acid and acetic acid (acetic acid may also be used as a solvent). However, the reactive additive may also be ammonia, which is preferably used in combination with an alcohol such as methanol. Relative to the intermediatecPreferably, the ammonia is used in an amount of 2 to 4 molar equivalents. The use of ammonia as a reaction additive is particularly suitable for embodiment (1).

In the case where hydrolysis is effected first, then the intermediate of embodiment (6) will be formedc. By reduction of the nitro group and hydrolysis of the acetal, then ring closure can occur.

This promotes ring formation since halogen and sulfonate are better leaving groups than hydroxyl.
In the case where the substitution reaction is a halogenation reaction, it may be carried out in the presence of a hydrogen halide, preferably hydrogen bromide or hydrogen chloride. The hydrogen halide is preferably in the form of an aqueous solution.
Preferably a molar excess of hydrogen halide is used, for example by using at least 5: 1, preferably at least 10: 1 and more preferably at least 15: 1 of hydrogen halide with an intermediatecIn a molar ratio of (a).

In other less preferred embodiments, the reaction may be effected as a two-step reaction, wherein a first set of reaction materials and conditions is used to reduce the nitro group in step (iia ") and a second set of reaction materials and conditions is used to close the ring in step (iib").
One advantage of the metal-catalyzed ring-closure reaction is that it does not require the use of reagents in stoichiometric amounts. In a preferred embodiment, no other than intermediates are usedcAnd reagents other than a hydrogen source. Intermediates are consideredcAnd hydrogen sources are reagents because they are consumed during the reaction. Other components used in the reaction, such as metal catalysts, are not considered 'reagents' because they are not consumed during the reaction.

The preparation of fuel additives by metal catalysed reactions will now be described in detaileThe specific route of (1).
(1) One-step reaction
In a preferred embodiment, the reaction is preferably effected as a one-step reaction. Thus, the same reaction materials are used in steps (iia ") and (iib"), i.e. steps (iia ") and (iib") are effected in the presence of a metal catalyst, a hydrogen source and an aprotic solvent system.
It is to be understood that metal catalysts are catalysts containing a metal, and thus, they may contain a non-metallic element. Suitable metal catalysts for use in the one-step metal catalyzed reaction include those selected from palladium (e.g., Pd/C), nickel (e.g., in the presence of aluminum such as in Raney nickel or Ni-SiO2/Al2O3Medium) and cobalt (e.g., in the presence of aluminum such as in raney cobalt) catalysts. Nickel catalyst, in particular Ni-SiO2/Al2O3Is particularly preferred.
Relative to the intermediatecThe metal catalyst may be used in an amount of up to 0.3 molar equivalent, for example, 0.005 to 0.3 molar equivalent, preferably 0.01 to 0.25 molar equivalent, and more preferably 0.05 to 0.2 molar equivalent.
The reaction is also carried out in the presence of a source of hydrogen. The hydrogen source is preferably hydrogen, for example at a pressure of 1-50 bar, preferably 3-30 bar and more preferably 5-15 bar.
Although less preferred, a hydrogen transfer reagent may also be used as a source of hydrogen, such as formic acid, sodium formate or ammonium formate. The hydrogen transfer reagent will generate hydrogen gas in situ. The hydrogen transfer reagent may be used in conjunction with hydrogen gas, or as the sole source of hydrogen. The hydrogen transfer agent is preferably used in conjunction with a palladium catalyst such as Pd/C.
Relative to the intermediatecThe hydrogen transfer agent may be used in an amount of up to 5 molar equivalents, for example 0.1 to 5 molar equivalents, preferably 0.5 to 4 molar equivalents and more preferably 1 to 3 molar equivalents.
The one-step reaction is carried out in the presence of an aprotic solvent system. The aprotic solvent system is believed to facilitate the removal of water from the reaction mixture, particularly at reflux, which facilitates oxidative cyclization to occur.
It is to be understood that the aprotic solvent system is substantially free of any protic solvent, i.e. contains less than 2 vol.%, preferably less than 1 vol.% and more preferably less than 0.1 vol.% of protic solvent.
The aprotic solvent system preferably comprises an aromatic solvent, such as selected from toluene, benzene, xylene, trimethylbenzene, such as mesitylene, toluene, xylene, toluene, xylene, mesitylene, xylene,diphenyl ether, naphthalene, methyl-substituted naphthalenes (i.e., 1-or 2-methylnaphthalene), and anisole. Mesitylene is particularly suitable for one-step metal catalyzed reactions leading to fuel additiveseHigh yield of (a). Refinery streams containing mixtures of aromatics with suitable boiling ranges, for example falling in the range of 100-250 c, may also be used.
The aromatic solvent may be present in the aprotic solvent system in an amount of at least 30 wt.%, preferably at least 40 wt.% and more preferably at least 50 wt.%. In embodiments, the aromatic solvent is the only solvent used, i.e., the aprotic solvent system consists of an aromatic solvent.
The aprotic solvent system can also comprise a non-aromatic solvent. Preferred non-aromatic solvents are selected from heterocyclic solvents such as from tetrahydrofuran and 1, 4-dioxane. Other suitable aprotic non-aromatic solvents include dimethylacetamide. Preferably, non-aromatic solvents are used in combination with aromatic solvents.
In case the reaction is carried out as a one-step reaction, the reaction conditions are preferably the same in steps (iia ") and (iib"), i.e. steps (iia ") and (iib") are carried out at a temperature of at least 100 ℃. In some embodiments, pressure may be required to maintain the solvent system in the liquid phase at a temperature greater than 100 ℃. This may be the case where, for example, benzene or tetrahydrofuran is used. A suitable pressure may be reached by carrying out the reaction in the presence of hydrogen at the pressure given above, or other pressures may be applied which exceed the pressure given by hydrogen.
Preferably, steps (iia ") and (iib") are effected, for example, at temperatures of 100-. The one-step reaction is preferably effected under reflux.
In some embodiments, the method comprises a preheating step, which is effected before step (iia "). In the preheating step, the reactants may be brought to temperature over a period of up to 3 hours, preferably up to 2 hours, and more preferably up to 1.5 hours. The preheating step may be carried out at a temperature of 40-100 ℃.
The one-step reaction (i.e. steps (iia ") and (iib") together) may be carried out for a period of more than 2 hours, preferably more than 4 hours. Typically, a one-step reaction is achieved for up to 24 hours. These values do not include any time period in which the reaction mixture is preheated.
(2) Two-step reaction
The metal-catalyzed ring closure reaction can also be effected as a two-step reaction, in which different reaction materials and preferably different conditions are used in steps (iia ") and (iib"). Although different reaction materials may be used in steps (iia ") and (iib"), the same metal catalyst may be used throughout. This enables the reaction to be carried out as a one-pot reaction.
Suitable metal catalysts for use in the two-step, but preferably one-pot reaction include those selected from palladium (e.g. Pd/C), nickel (e.g. in the presence of aluminium such as Raney nickel or Ni-SiO2/Al2O3Medium), cobalt (e.g., in the presence of aluminum such as in raney cobalt). Nickel catalysts, especially Raney nickel, and palladium catalysts, especially Pd/C, are particularly preferred.
Relative to the intermediatecThe metal catalyst may be used in an amount of up to 0.3 molar equivalent, for example, 0.005 to 0.3 molar equivalent, preferably 0.01 to 0.25 molar equivalent, and more preferably 0.05 to 0.2 molar equivalent.
Typically, all catalyst is added at the beginning of step (iia "). However, in some embodiments, it may be desirable to add some of the metal catalyst at the beginning of step (iia ") and to add the remainder of the metal catalyst at a later time in the reaction, for example at the beginning of step (iib"). In these embodiments, intermediates may be usedcHigher amounts of metal catalyst, for example from 0.005 to 0.3 molar equivalent, preferably from 0.01 to 0.25 molar equivalent and more preferably from 0.05 to 0.2 molar equivalent in step (iia "), and from 0.005 to 0.3 further molar equivalent, preferably from 0.01 to 0.25 further molar equivalent and more preferably from 0.05 to 0.2 further molar equivalent in step (iib").
A step (iia ") of carrying out a two-step reaction in the presence of a source of hydrogen. The hydrogen source is preferably hydrogen, for example at a pressure of 1-50 bar, preferably 3-30 bar and more preferably 5-15 bar.
Although less preferred, a hydrogen transfer reagent may also be used as a source of hydrogen, such as formic acid, sodium formate or ammonium formate. The hydrogen transfer reagent will generate hydrogen gas in situ. The hydrogen transfer reagent may be used in conjunction with hydrogen gas, or as the sole source of hydrogen. The hydrogen transfer agent is preferably used in conjunction with a palladium catalyst such as Pd/C.
Relative to the intermediatecThe hydrogen transfer agent may be used in an amount of up to 5 molar equivalents, for example 0.1 to 5 molar equivalents, preferably 0.5 to 4 molar equivalents and more preferably 1 to 3 molar equivalents.
The step (iib ") of the two-step reaction may also be effected in the presence of a source of hydrogen, for example as described in relation to step (iia"). For example, step (iib ") may be carried out in the presence of the same source of hydrogen as step (iia"). However, step (iib ") may also be carried out in the absence of a hydrogen source. For example, the reaction chamber may be vented to remove any hydrogen prior to step (iib "). In this case, step (iib ") is preferably carried out at ambient pressure (i.e. at a pressure of about 1 bar).
The step of the two-step reaction (iib ") is preferably carried out in the presence of an aprotic solvent system. The aprotic solvent system is believed to facilitate the removal of water from the reaction mixture, particularly at reflux, which facilitates oxidative cyclization to occur.
The aprotic solvent system preferably comprises an aromatic solvent, such as a solvent selected from toluene, benzene, xylene, trimethylbenzenes such as mesitylene, diphenyl ether, naphthalene, methyl-substituted naphthalenes and anisoles. Mesitylene is particularly suitable for the process of the invention, resulting in a fuel additiveeHigh yield of (a). Refinery streams containing mixtures of aromatics with suitable boiling ranges, for example falling in the range of 100-250 c, may also be used.
The aromatic solvent may be present in the aprotic solvent system in an amount of at least 30 wt.%, preferably at least 40 wt.% and more preferably at least 50 wt.%. In embodiments, the aromatic solvent is the only solvent used, i.e., the aprotic solvent system consists of an aromatic solvent.
The aprotic solvent system can also comprise a non-aromatic solvent. Preferred non-aromatic solvents are selected from heterocyclic solvents such as from tetrahydrofuran and 1, 4-dioxane. Preferably, non-aromatic solvents are used in combination with aromatic solvents.
The step (iia ") of the two-step reaction is preferably also effected in the presence of an aprotic solvent system (e.g. as described above), since this is believed to result in a higher yield. However, it may also be effected in the presence of a protic solvent system, such as an aqueous (i.e. aqueous) solvent system or an alcoholic solvent system (e.g. methanol or ethanol).
In case the reaction is carried out as a two-step reaction, the reaction conditions are preferably different in steps (iia ") and (iib"). Step (iib ") is effected at a temperature of at least 100 ℃. As mentioned above, pressure may be required to maintain the solvent system in the liquid phase at a temperature greater than 100 ℃. A suitable pressure may be reached by carrying out the reaction in the presence of hydrogen at the pressure given above, or other pressures may be applied which exceed the pressure given by hydrogen.
Preferably step (iib) is effected at a temperature of, for example, 100-. Step (iib ") is preferably carried out under reflux.
However, step (iia ") is preferably effected at a lower temperature than step (iib"). For example, step (iia) may be effected at a temperature of 10-100 ℃, preferably 15-80 ℃ and more preferably 20-60 ℃.
The two-step reaction (i.e. steps (iia ") and (iib") together) may be carried out for a period of more than 2 hours, preferably more than 10 hours. Step (iia ") is preferably effected for a period of more than 1 hour. Preferably step (iib ") is effected for a period of more than 8 hours.

If step (iib') is carried out in the presence of a reducing agent, it is preferably carried out at ambient temperature, i.e. at a temperature of from 15 to 25 ℃.
